💰 How To Add AdMob To Your Android App || How To Implement Admob Ads In Android Studio [2022]

Integrating the Google Mobile Ads SDK into an app is the first step toward displaying ads and earning revenue. Once you've integrated the SDK, you can choose an ad format (such as native or rewarded video) and follow the steps to implement it.

To prepare your app, complete the steps in the following sections.

App prerequisites

• Use Android Studio 3.2 or higher

• Make sure that your app's build file uses the following values:

• A minSdkVersion of 19 or higher
• A compileSdkVersion of 28 or higher

Configure your app in 3 steps.

1.In your project-level build.gradle file, include Google's Maven repository and Maven central repository in both your buildscript and allprojects sections:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

2. Add the dependencies for the Google Mobile Ads SDK to your module's app-level Gradle file, normally app/build.gradle:

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:21.0.0'

3. Add your AdMob app ID (identified in the AdMob UI) to your app's AndroidManifest.xml file. To do so, add a <meta-data> tag with android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID". You can find your app ID in the AdMob UI. For android:value, insert your own AdMob app ID, surrounded by quotation marks.

<manifest>
    <application>
        <!-- Sample AdMob app ID: ca-app-pub-3940256099942544~3347511713 -->
        <meta-data
            android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
            android:value="ca-app-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx~yyyyyyyyyy"/>
    </application>
</manifest>
